YDisciple
Annie Grandell is the Director of YDisciple. The goal of YDisciple is to help parishes engage the youth of their parish and form them into disciples. YDisciple does this by offering resources to train adults to be disciple-makers. They then assist in launching small groups for the youth of your parish so as to form them into young disciples.
